The Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source (RILIS) is an essential technique to selectively supply radioactive ion beams to a plethora of experimental arrangements within the ISOLDE facility. Over the past year, RILIS has been involved in supplying laser ionized radioactive ion beams on 22 occasions, producing 60\% of the total beam supplied throughout the online and winter physics periods....
The antiProton Unstable Matter Annihilation (PUMA) experiment aims to probe the surface properties of stable and unstable isotopes by annihilating antiprotons with protons and neutrons on the surface of nuclei [1]. The pions generated in the annihilation events are identified and counted using a time-projection chamber and a scintillator trigger barrel surrounding the interaction region. While...

The HIE-ISOLDE facility can accelerate a wide variety of radioactive ions, from 6He to 232Ra, up to collision energies close to 10 MeV/A. Present physics program covers a broad range of nuclear structure aspects such as shell-evolution and nuclear shape transitions, unbound systems, reaction dynamics, and astrophysical processes. The ISOLDE Superconducting Recoil Separator (ISRS) [1] aims...
The ISRS is a novel high-resolution recoil separator to be installed at the end of XT03 at HIE-ISOLDE. The design of the ISRS spectrometer exploits the different time-of-flight of the fragments produced in the reaction target to perform the particle separation. Those reaction fragments are injected into a particle storage system, composed of an array of iron-free superconducting multifunction...
